Alright - it has been [[a couple of years since I last installed
|
|
|
|
|
Linux on a Apple notebook|macbook-air-42-archlinux]], so it is time again.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I have just ordered the Macbook Pro 2016 (with real keys, because
|
|
|
|
|
the purpose of F1-F10 is exactly what Apple tries to reinvent with a
|
|
|
|
|
lot of colours) and plan to install Arch Linux on it in the next weeks.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I expect the
|
|
|
|
|
[[typical early adaptor problems|macbook-air-42-correcting-multimedia-key-mapping-and-status]] with the Wifi chipset and
|
|
|
|
|
maybe trouble with connecting external monitors (not only because it
|
|
|
|
|
is Apple, but also because [Intel Skylake support under Linux is pretty
|
|
|
|
|
bad at the moment](https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/51508)).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
So if you are curious about how easy or hard it is - stay tuned and
|
|
|
|
|
checkout this site again in a couple of days!
